Chapter 177 One Paper Order
Cai Jin chose to surrender to Yuan Shao when he could not resist, and to Han Fu when he could not resist. It is not certain that Cai Jin will surrender to Yuan Shao again next time.
Such people have no bottom line in doing things.
Wang Lei's repeated beatings made Cai Jin feel scared.
Cai Jin indeed showed a look of fear and fear, and quickly bowed and replied: "General, the reason why the officials resisted the soldiers of the three counties is ultimately one reason, and the situation is forced! Before the army under your command arrived, I didn't know that the Jizhou army would come, and Chunyu Qiong issued another order, and I had no choice but to obey, so the soldiers from the other three counties rushed to Yuancheng County."
After a moment of pause, Cai Jin said again: "After the general's army arrived in Yuancheng County, the army of the other three counties was stationed in the city. I was alone and dared not show my intention to return to the prefecture's Lord Mu, otherwise I would be killed immediately."
Wang Lei sneered: "After all, you can surrender to the other side."
Cai Jin smiled embarrassedly, showed a helpless look and said, "Please understand that I am just a small county magistrate. If you want an army, I don't have an army; if you want money, I don't have money; if you want a general, I don't have a general who can fight... I have a meager strength and I can't resist at all. People in the officialdom are involuntarily."
"What a villain!" Wang Lei shook his head and sighed softly.
Cai Jin's words were not false at all.
Standing in the position of county magistrate, many things are involuntary.
Cai Jin showed a flattering smile on his face and said, "So, have you accepted my surrender?"
"Hmph, how easy it is!" Wang Lei's eyes suddenly became stern and said in a deep voice: "If you accept your surrender so easily, wouldn't you be able to surrender to Yuan Shao next time? Death crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped. I will give you thirty military sticks and bear them. I will accept your surrender. If surrender happens next time, Chunyu Qiong is your precedent."
Cai Jin secretly cried out in his heart, and this time, he was really a big loss.
The benefit was not scored, but he would be beaten thirty military sticks.
Cai Jin looked helpless, but did not resist, and said respectfully: "Thank you for your forgiveness. In order to protect the villain's head, the next time Yuan Shao attacks, the lower officials will definitely resist to the end and stand firmly on the side of the governor of the state."
"Come on, drag it down!"
The soldiers walked in and took Cai Jin down.
Soon, Cai Jin's heart-wrenching screams came from outside the camp.
The sound was like a dead parents.
Guo Jia took out his ears, with a faint smile on his face, and said, "Cai Jin is slick and slick, and is an old man in the officialdom. When he met his lord, he was a fallen this time. After returning to Yuancheng County, he must be obedient."
Jia Xu said disapprovingly: "If Yuan Shao was defeated, Cai Jin would naturally be obedient. If General Wang was defeated and Yuan Shao's army came back, in my opinion, Cai Jin would definitely choose to surrender without hesitation."
Wang Lei said: "I didn't let him be loyal to Han Fu, I just told him not to make small moves when we go to war."
Jia Xu nodded and said, "This is indeed impossible for Cai Jin to be loyal."
Sudden screams came from outside the camp. After the Thirty Army sticks were beaten, Cai Jin's butt had bloomed, and bloody blood was covered with his butt. However, most of them were skin and flesh, without hurting their muscles. If the soldier really wanted to punish the Thirty Army sticks, he could completely kill Cai Jin after the Thirty Army sticks were taken down.
Wang Lei just wanted to punish Cai Jin, and it was impossible for him to do it too much.
The soldiers understood, so they didn't take any serious action.
Cai Jin limped back to the tent with his painful butt. He grinned and bowed and said, "General, the generals of the other three counties are ready in the city. I don't know when you will enter Yuancheng County to take over the army."
Wang Lei thought for a moment and replied: "I will send someone to the city with you to deal with related matters. As for the coalition forces in Yuancheng County, I will immediately return to their respective places."
"Yes!" Cai Jin nodded.
Immediately, Wang Lei sent a lieutenant and Cai Jin to Yuancheng County.
Wang Lei had to continue to fight to Qinghe Country, and it was impossible for him to stay for too long, so he did not plan to enter Yuancheng County. It was enough for him to send a captain and Cai Jin to go there. After Cai Jin returned to Yuancheng County, the generals of Qingyuan County, Pingen County and Guantao County saw the tragic situation of Cai Jin's butt blooming, and were glad that he did not go.
This trip was indeed a dragon's nest.
The captain read out Wang Lei's order, disbanded the army of the three counties, and began to deal with matters in the city again. This is of course the matter after Cai Jin returned to Yuancheng County. If he doesn't mention it later, Wang Lei, Guo Jia and Jia Xu are still discussing the details of attacking Qinghe Kingdom. Wang Lei was very moved by Jia Xu's previous suggestions, but he did not plan to adopt them.
Such a method is too bloody and ruthless.
Until the end, it cannot be adopted.
While the three of them were discussing, Dian Wei's voice came from outside the camp: "Lord, the envoy from Ye County! He has arrived at the entrance of the camp!"
Wang Lei stood up to greet him, Guo Jia and Jia Xu followed closely behind. The three of them left the camp tent, and Dian Wei also went with them. After arriving at the camp gate, Wang Lei raised his eyebrows when he saw the visitor. He said that the person who came was not someone else, but Han Fu's aide Xin Pi.
Although Xinpi is young, his ability is not bad.
Wang Lei walked up and clasped his fists and said, "Mr. George (Xinpi's name) came from afar, thank you for your hard work!"
Xinpi shook his head and said, "No hard work!"
Wang Lei waved his hand and smiled and said, "Sir, please come in!"
Immediately, Wang Lei led Xin Pi back to the central army tent. After the host and the guest sat down, Wang Lei asked straight to the point: "Mr. George came to the military camp thousands of miles away, don't know what's going on?"
Xinpi looked serious and said, "Mr. The governor of the state sent an order to lead your army back to Ye County immediately."
"ah!!"
Wang Lei exclaimed, showing a look of surprise.
Even though Wang Lei's mentality was relatively stable, he couldn't help but exclaim when he heard Xin Pi's news.
This news is amazing!
Wang Lei frowned and asked, "Sir, what happened in Ye County, why did you call me back? I just quelled the rebellions in Qingyuan County, Pingen County, Guantao County and Yuancheng County, and was planning to take advantage of the momentum of victory to force the army to enter Qinghe Country. As long as the chaos in Qinghe Country is pacified, it is just around the corner to defeat Yuan Shao."
After a pause, Wang Lei said: "If you go back now, the four counties you just won will easily change."
"There is no way, this is the order of the state governor."
Xin Pi was surprised by Wang Lei's speed of quelling the war and said, "The reason why the provincial governor is so anxious is that Ye County was besieged by Yuan Shao's army. Not long ago, Yuan Shao captured Julu County and led his army south to Quliang County. Once Quliang County falls, the next step is Liangqi County, and after Liangqi County fails, Ye County. The situation is unfavorable, so the provincial governor is eager to ask you to go back."
After hearing this, Wang Lei couldn't help but sigh.
This news came at a time.
